Ecohydrology

the proposal that water-limited vegetation adjusts its canopy so that soil moisture is maximized without stress, giving an equilibrium between climate, soil and plants.

In ecohydrology, ecological optimality hypothesis refers to the proposal that water-limited vegetation adjusts its canopy so that soil moisture is maximized without stress, giving an equilibrium between climate, soil and plants. This meaning comes from Eagleson (1982) in Water Resources Research.[1]
